I think it’s fucked that Israel’s role in the rise of Hamas is used as justification to discredit them as a legitimate representative of Palestinians. Its like TERFs doing misogyny through feminism. I think they just don’t want Palestine to have a legitimate representative that isn’t controlled by the West because Hamas is clearly out of the hands of Netanyahu now. Israel’s security officials said it would lead to all out war? Hmm, nothing to see here. Why are we quoting them uncritically? Maybe this revalation that Hamas’ rise was influenced by Israel delegitimizes Israel, not Palestines right to self defense.
